1900-2006? This past century has literally been humanity's most transformative ever, and this chart is just glomming all the data together. We'd need to see trends of how these have changed over time to get a realistic picture.

Well, when you only look at that one image alone and not any of the rest of the information and studies that accompany it, I can see why you'd make that hasty judgement.

Maybe go read more of the vast amounts of information available on it: https://www.nonviolent-conflict.org/about/civil-resistance/

That's the exact same link I already read. Did you mean to send me something else? There was a link titled "award-winning research" to a $27 book. I wasn't able to find any further data sources beyond the provided anecdotes. Did I miss something?

(Minor edit for clarity.)

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world -4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

"anecdotes"? Yes, you have clearly missed a lot. There's lots available and easy to find. I don't think you need me to hold your hand.

Here's a full dataset if you want: https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi%3A10.7910%2FDVN%2FMHOXDV

I mean, you literally said:

the rest of the information and studies that accompany it,

(Emphasis mine.)

I only saw only one study referenced, which seems to be a book, not an academic paper.

In any case, I appreciate the data sources. I'll take a look.

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world -4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The book itself is based on multiple studies. Here is the first part of the second paragraph for the book's description:

Combining statistical analysis with case studies of specific countries and territories [...]

The website has some other studies referenced and such. It kinda seems that you barely opened either of the links.

[–] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Ok, well I don't have the book, or links to the studies it's based on, so that's not particularly helpful.

I throughly scanned the page for data sources and scholarly papers, and also read some of the major concepts and provided examples. I did not see any further studies or data linked in either of the pages you linked to yourself, but if I did miss something, please feel free to point it out.

Once again, thank you for providing the source data you already did. It's a fairly complicated dataset, so it'll take some effort to grok.
